### 4/5 — Love the design

*2025-07-05, version 1.0.1*

The app is clean, fast, and the gallery is so fun to explore. Great for both beginners and plant experts.

### 4/5 — Highly recommend

*2025-07-03, version 1.0.1*

It identifies everything—flowers, trees, even weeds! A must-have app for anyone curious about nature.

### 2/5 — Not completely exact

*2023-08-12, version 1.0.1*

Everything I took a picture of only had a 50% accuracy of identifying it.  Then they would give you choices on which one you think is correct.  Definitely not worth the money.

### 2/5 — Identified 1 out of 4 weeds

*2023-06-11, version 1.0.1*

I got the prostrate spurge weed but didn’t get Texas live oak, dallisgrass, and annual blue grass. Will not renew…competing app got all 4

### 1/5 — Save yourself $3.99 !!!

*2022-06-19, version 1.0.1*

Totally useless!!! Took a photo of a large weed expecting some analysis , but had to sift through 130+ pictures ( most are tiny , cannot enlarge or compare, just a few large enough to see) ! A complete waste of $3.99 !
This app did not help at all …. except to obligate you to PAY $3.99 to find that out !!!!
If they were honest, they would give a free trial period … even for just 1 day !!!!

### 1/5 — Not what the title says

*2022-06-05, version 1.0.1*

I wanted a app to tell me what the weeds were , not trying to figure which one it is . Must be for kids . I would like my money back but can’t figure how to do that .😪

### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish

*2022-06-02*

Doesn’t identify any of the weeds in the garden correctly.  DO NOT BUY.

### 1/5 — Would not work

*2022-05-31, version 1.0.1*

It kept telling me could not scan picture, even though the pic was very clear. So I wasted $4 on this and never identifies one weed. Instead I’ve just been Googling their descriptions and it’s working out fine.

### 1/5 — Didn’t work! Disappointed!

*2022-05-29, version 1.0.1*

I signed up and paid for a week. I couldn’t get it to work past the picture taking. It kept saying it couldn’t scan. Very disappointing!

### 1/5 — Misleading name!

*2022-04-30, version 1.0.1*

This app is not worth it, you can get access to the same AI using iNaturalist for free. Very poor UI and programming overall. I regret subscribing but I hope I can stop other from making the same mistake

### 1/5 — Complete crap

*2022-04-24, version 1.0.1*

This app does not work.  I have a hay field in Spokane and I need to identify weeds to control them.  The two weeds that I snapped pics of were identified as endagered and only grow in Alberta Canada or Europe.  Yet I have an entire field full of them.  What total garbage.  Also it gives you know real info on how to control them.  This app is useless!

### 1/5 — Waste of my time and $3.99

*2021-10-10, version 1.0.1*

Wanted this to identify lawn weeds it failed miserably.   Tried it on common plants and it did not identify any. I want my money back!

### 1/5 — Not a fan of this app

*2021-08-24, version 1.0.1*

I downloaded this app to help with my yard. Have tried to take 8 pictures and they all “failed” not happy🙁

### 1/5 — Rhus toxicodendron

*2021-08-02, version 1.0.1*

If you don’t know poison ivy is Rhus toxicodendron then what good is this app. Can’t even copy and paste from the app to find out what Rhus toxicodendron is. The suckers got me for $4.00 bucks

### 1/5 — DONT DO IT! TOTAL RIPOFF

*2024-09-09, version 1.0.1*

What this app likes to do is cause confusion when it comes time for renewal or restore. Be warned!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-08-25, version 1.0.1*

I cancelled this subscription and they kept charging me.  Horrible app.

### 1/5 — No good

*2023-08-13, version 1.0.1*

Useless piece of trash. Doesn’t work. Just says unable to scan image, even though it’s perfectly clear.

### 1/5 — Cost

*2023-07-21, version 1.0.1*

It’s didn’t say in the preview that it costs $50 a year to use this app. Won’t let the download continue without signing up for premium

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2023-07-16, version 1.0.1*

The app didn’t truly identify the plant but gave me options to choose from. If I knew what it was then why did I buy the app.

### 1/5 — Can’t cancel

*2023-07-04, version 1.0.1*

Says I can cancel at anytime but app gives no directions on how to do that. What a scam!

### 1/5 — Must pay to use

*2023-04-04, version 1.0.1*

I have no idea how accurate this plant id tool is, why would I pay for it before then?

### 1/5 — Cancel

*2023-03-27, version 1.0.1*

I accidentally got this app and am unable to cancel

### 1/5 — Yearly subscription not wanted

*2022-08-13, version 1.0.1*

Is there a way i can get a refund i was charged a full year by mistake and do not want this app at all its way to expensive for me

### 1/5 — Trash

*2022-06-22, version 1.0.1*

Riddled with ads or a very expensive membership right from the start, and you have to help train the AI.  I would rate negative stars if I could.

### 5/5 — Helpful for nature lovers

*2025-07-06, version 1.0.1*

This app taught me the names of so many plants around my neighborhood. I use it every time I go on a walk!

### 5/5 — Very educational

*2025-07-04, version 1.0.1*

I’ve learned a lot just by snapping pictures of plants. It’s like having a botanist in your pocket!

### 5/5 — Amazing plant app!

*2025-07-02, version 1.0.1*

I took a photo of a flower and it identified it instantly. Super easy to use and very accurate!

### 5/5 — Great app for plant lovers

*2021-05-19, version 1.0*

This is the first plant ID app that I’ve tried that actually works! It’s so great!

### 5/5 — Pretty dope

*2021-05-19, version 1.0*

This is what I have been waiting for entire life time of gardening I never have to wonder what is this plant or tree or weed - wonderful

### 5/5 — Spot on ?

*2021-05-19, version 1.0*

Couldn’t be happier with the app. I upgraded to the gold membership and have full access.

### 5/5 — My garden

*2021-05-19, version 1.0*

This app is so completely useful for identifying, learning to care for and drawback characteristics of many many species of plants! Each description has both practical and historical facts, even poetry to a species. An example is the Dog Rose. You’d think it was a derogatory name but it isn’t! In the Middle Ages it was thought that the rose bush had curative powers when someone was bitten by a dog! Fascinating!!! I love this app!

### 5/5 — Pretty good. Plant identifier not perfect

*2021-05-19, version 1.0*

gives desciption and information about your plants

### 5/5 — Sophisticated AI

*2021-05-19*

This app must be by far the smartest consumer tech available today. I live on an acre in Willamette Valley in Oregon right on the edge of the temperate rainforest. For 10 years I’ve wanted to complete a full inventory of the two hundred+ native and non-native plants in my yard. I’d identified 3/4 of them but still had many I had no idea about. After one weekend using the app with ease I am done!

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2021-05-19*

As a plant/bonsai enthusiast this app is wonderful! I am always taking pictures of wild plants and trees. And it has actually been helpful not only with knowledge but also it helped me understand that my shamrocks had lead mites!!! So great! Worth the yearly price, for me anyways. Sometimes I have to take a pic from a couple different angles to when I am pretty sure it has the wrong name for a plant. Besides that it’s great!
